Shorting Heron Therapeutics shares

There are currently 23.7 million Heron Therapeutics shares held short by investors – that's known as Heron Therapeutics's "short interest". This figure is 1.4% down from 24.0 million last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Heron Therapeutics shares can be evaluated.

Heron Therapeutics's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Heron Therapeutics's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Heron Therapeutics shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Heron Therapeutics shares traded daily (recently around 1.4 million). Heron Therapeutics's SIR currently stands at 17.31. In other words for every 100,000 Heron Therapeutics shares traded daily on the market, roughly 17310 shares are currently held short.

However Heron Therapeutics's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Heron Therapeutics shares, or, against the total number of tradable Heron Therapeutics shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Heron Therapeutics's short interest could be expressed as 0.23% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Heron Therapeutics shares in existence, roughly 230 shares are currently held short) or 0.2635% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Heron Therapeutics shares, roughly 264 shares are currently held short).

A SIR above 10% would generally be considered pretty high, pointing to a potentially pessimistic outlook for the share price and a discouraging interest in betting against Heron Therapeutics.

Have Heron Therapeutics's shares ever split?

Heron Therapeutics's shares were split on a 1:20 basis on 12 January 2014. So if you had owned 20 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Heron Therapeutics shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Heron Therapeutics shares which in turn could have impacted Heron Therapeutics's share price.

Heron Therapeutics share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Heron Therapeutics's shares have ranged in value from as little as $12.28 up to $22.4. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Heron Therapeutics's is 1.3808. This would suggest that Heron Therapeutics's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
